Alan Mind Daily Journal

I love the idea and execution of this app. Clean interface, insightful and so helpful. However the thing that made me decide not to use it is the mood tracking. This mood tracking misses the dialectics behind emotions. If you put in that you’re not feeling great then that’s it. And it focuses on that. Meanwhile it’s possible to be happy AND sad at the same time. Stressed and calm. It would be more helpful that you could enter your overall mood, the emotions you are feeling and then say whether something like family was contributing to the more positive/helpful emotions. And then offer suggestions based on whether you wanted to accept or change the less positive emotions or build on the more positive ones. It manages to be quite black and white regarding feelings and the following activities, which encourages polarized thinking. Ironic considering it is an app that utilizes the CBT framework. As it is now I would not recommend this app to someone with mood dysregulation or a complex mental illness. Quite disappointing because it’s such an easy to navigate and such a fantastic resource. For depression and anxiety it’s fantastic!

The guided journalling is great. The training videos seem good too but the experience is confusing and buggy.

Never in my wildest dreams would I have thought that there is an app out there that after downloading , I would be prompted with some questions that I would go on and answer ,that it would give me a sudden understanding and an overall interruption on how I am as a person, break downs of little traits and understandings of behaviors that I would then go on to and read and shout to myself “OMG thats me” to then be explained and given information and understanding on some of my behaviors it actually blew me away. I have learnt a lot about myself and came to understand that ME TIME is also a time I get to learn about myself and how I can better change myself for the better. Great app, better then great app! Best ever app just try and see the worst that can happen is you don’t like it but you won’t ever get to make that choice if you don’t give it a try and I can assure you once you try it , it will be there to stay !!

I love it but I think that journaling is free for everyone to use, without having to pay to see insights or a daily breakthrough. I hope you can change this so journaling is completely free to use. Thank you. I will appreciate it.

this app is sooo good and it makes me let go of all of my feelings stuck inside of me

It’s helped me calm down and I’m starting to feel better it’s nice to write my feelings down and when I feel stressed about family and friends I come here and write it down but the bad thing is you have to pay for some stuff

I love this app so much, it has helped me so much by being able to write out everything and how I’m feeling without having to worry that people might see it! The only problem I have is I think it should be free because being a kid I don’t have the money to pay for supscription

I’ve been using Jour for about two weeks now, so far it is AMAZING! It helps you with lots of moods, troubles etc. However some features you need to pay, but all the free things are good enough! I have been more at peace with my mind ever since I started using this, .

I actually cannot believe how much I love this app. I look forward to my daily reflections and it has been interesting checking in each day. Such a beautiful and aesthetically pleasing app. Thank you soooo much for making this available!!! 💚💚

Been using Jour to get myself into the habit of journaling. It is beautifully designed, and so keen to keep using it. I have tried a few apps but I have found having prompts to journal with Jour to super helpful. It would be great if the Daily Reflection had different types of questions, as it has been quite repetitive for me - especially when I use it more. By asking "What is the one thing that me happy" you're limited to one answer. Perhaps "What makes you happy today" is broader and frees the mind more :)
